Review of my Volvo Car Purchase
To help others, below is my review of Corley’s Lincoln / Volvo dealership regarding my recent purchase of a Volvo XC90.
The dealership building is welcomingly beautiful and functional, complete with a large service area in back and a private restaurant on the top floor.
Tameeza, a sales consultant, is kind and friendly. She helped my wife and I at our first trip to the dealership which piqued our interest in the car that we eventually purchased.
Rick, the new car manager, sits at the front door making sure all customers are cared for the minute they come on the lot. He has many years in the industry and has a wealth of knowledge to share.
Dave, a sales consultant, helped me the second time I came in because Tameeza was busy. I had studied the specifications and my first concern was a four-cycle engine in a six-thousand-pound car. Dave pointed out that concern was addressed with a turbocharger in tandem with a supercharger while the four-cycle engine and eight speed transmission provided great fuel savings. I thought, wow, what a good answer. After a quick walk around the car and an explanation about the steering wheel, mirror and seat adjustments, we were off on a test drive. During the test drive Dave explained basic features about the car. He also allowed me time to just enjoy the car and feel the magnificent stability, comfort, power (nice), turning radius, and safety technology features, firsthand. I was almost sold but had a more questions. The car has a great deal of technology, safety, and comfort features that take time to fully understand. When we got back to the dealership, Dave and I sat in the car while he began explaining everything on the large computer screen. Many of the car settings are performed here. I was quite impressed with not only the car but Dave’s knowledge about the car. After Dave’s explanation, I began asking more questions about a few things I didn’t fully understand. Dave graciously spent more time reviewing and providing examples. It was clear Dave had taken the time to learn and understand every single detail about the car so he could provide information to anyone, regardless of their knowledge base. This kind of product competence is important to me, but seldom practiced today. It might sound mindless of me to say, Dave took time to earn my respect and friendship, but it is true. The car is so wonderful it could almost sell itself but needed Dave to seal the deal. It is also worth mentioning David continued to help after the sale. There was never any pressure, just relaxed, good manners by everyone at Corley’s. Lastly, after 2,000 miles the car is getting 23.9 mpg (city/hyw), which means I don’t use the turbo, superchargers too much.
So, in conclusion, yes, I recommend giving Corley’s Lincoln / Volvo dealership a look, if you want a fair deal, knowledgeable and friendly staff, honesty, and of course great cars.
